SRINAGAR: The State Government is working to put in place a new and modern economic and financial structure, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said today and asked the people to become active stakeholders in effective implementation of developmental programmes.

Terming public cooperation critical for good governance, she said, “Government cannot achieve much unless people become equal partners in effective implementation of developmental programmes.”

She said the Government is working towards putting in place a new and modern economic and financial structure that would constitute the State’s backbone.

The people should become active stakeholders in effective implementation of developmental programmes and also keep a close watch on the quality of works being executed in their respective areas, said the Chief Minister who inaugurated three community centres in different parts of Srinagar.

Talking about development priorities with regard to Srinagar which is the summer capital of the state, she said immediate concerns include flood protection, rapid transport, scientific waste management, urban amenities, housing and environment conservation.

Mehbooba said her late father and former Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed had envisioned restoration of historic richness of Srinagar city and worked tirelessly till his last days towards achieving this objective. (AGENCIES)
